Niko: Let the fun begin!

Yesterday my husband Robert and I purchased a puppy for a client in our executive protection training program.

Robert and I decided on a male German Shepherd with him consulting over videos in Alaska (I am in Colorado).

After placing the pup–his name is Niko (pronounced Nee-co)–in his new home with our clients last night, training begins right away. Niko will spend the next couple weeks with his new owners before flying with me to Alaska to begin his on-site training at Alaska Dog Works.
